Crop plants maintain a "rhizosphere", or a concentrated area of microbial activity close to the root. The rhizosphere is the most active part of the soil ecosystem because it is where the most readily available food is, and where peak nutrient and water cycling occurs. Microbial food is exuded by crop roots to attract and feed microbes that in turn provide nutrients (and other compounds) to the plant at the root-soil interface where the plants can take them up. Since living roots provide the easiest source of food for soil microbes, growing long lived roots that feed the foundation species of the soil food web as much as possible during the growing season should be a goal of farmers seeking a productive and profitable crop. Roots associated with SWRT membranes have been shown to last all season long, contributing greatly to the improvement of soil quality because they have the nutrients and moisture they need.

6:57 DAT transition! I love it!
Also the outro music, it's got soul!
Does this mean that using gravel at the bottom of planters promotes good drainage?
Thanks I've been needing this broken down for better understanding with gardening

A great reservoir of knowledge made easy to understand.
Thank you for this information, very useful and helpful
Glad it was helpful!
This video SCREAMS 1995 to me.
Surprised to know it didnt feel like 80s to you
lmao
Seriously is there something that won't trigger trauma response in Gen-X?

that's not soil, it is dirt
Soil is the correct term.
